Foam Molders

Custom Foam Fabrication near Anaheim, California

Serving Anaheim & Orange County Manufacturers Since 1971

Foam Molders & Specialties manufactures custom foam parts, vacuum-formed plastic components and finished assemblies about 20 minutes from Anaheim, at our 55,000 sq ft facility in Cerritos. We have been fabricating foam and forming plastics in Southern California since 1971, and we are ISO 9001:2015 and AS9100 Rev D certified and ISO/TS 16949 compliant — so Anaheim and Orange County manufacturers can qualify us as a supplier, not just a vendor.

If you have a drawing, a CAD file, a sample part — or just a product that needs protecting — we can take it from concept to production tooling to repeat manufacturing under one roof.

Foam fabrication services

We convert open-cell and closed-cell foams into precision parts: cutting, shaping, die-cutting, laminating and thermal forming to your specification. Typical parts we produce for Orange County customers include:

  • Protective case and shipping inserts — engineered cavities that hold your product, tools or kit exactly in place
  • Gaskets, seals and padding for enclosures and equipment
  • Kitting and assembly trays for production lines and tool control
  • Cushioning and dunnage for parts handling between operations
  • Filtration and specialty components in reticulated foam

Materials we work with daily: polyurethane (open and closed cell), cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE), EVA and reticulated foams. As a converter, we help you select the right material for the load, chemistry and environment your part will actually see — before any tooling is cut.

Vacuum Forming, Pressure Forming & Full In-House Finishing

FMS has offered vacuum and pressure forming for over 40 years. We form thermoplastic sheet into three-dimensional parts — trays, housings, covers, panels — and then trim, bond, paint and assemble those parts in-house, including textured and styled finishes. One purchase order, one accountable supplier, no handoffs between shops.

From prototype to production — under one roof

Our engineering team works directly with your designers. We can assist with part design, build the tooling in-house, produce prototypes for your evaluation, and move approved parts into cost-effective production. Because tooling, fabrication, forming and finishing all happen in one facility, iterations that would take weeks across multiple vendors happen in days.

Why Anaheim Manufacturers Work With a Local Fabricator

Cerritos is a short drive from Anaheim via the 91 — which changes how a project runs. Your engineers can visit the floor during tooling. Prototypes can be reviewed in person the week they’re made, not shipped and waited for. Pickup and delivery are simple, freight damage risk drops, and when a production question comes up, the person who can answer it is 20 minutes away, at the end of a phone line we actually answer.

Frequently asked questions

Do you serve Anaheim and the rest of Orange County?

Yes. Our Cerritos facility sits on the LA–Orange County line, and Anaheim, Fullerton, Buena Park, Orange, Santa Ana and Irvine are all part of our daily service area — as is shipping nationwide for customers who start local and grow.

What foam materials can you fabricate?

Open- and closed-cell polyurethane, cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE), EVA and reticulated foams, matched to your application. If you’re not sure what your part needs, send the requirements and we’ll recommend material before quoting.

Can you help with design and prototyping?

Yes — that’s where most projects should start. We work from your CAD, drawing or physical sample, assist with design for manufacturability, build tooling in-house and supply prototypes for approval before production.
